A judge from the Supreme Court of India, either now serving or recently retired, is in charge of the commission.

• The Indian Parliament passed the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 also known as the Consumer Act, to safeguard the rights of Indian consumers. The Consumer Protection Act, 2019, was implemented in its place. It provides quick and simple settlement for consumer complaints. It protects customers and encourages them to speak up against inadequacies and defects in products and services. This law safeguards consumers' rights if retailers and producers participate in illegal activity.

Therefore, the periodical that is published for consumer education and awareness is (option D) Consumer Act.
